Actually, I like Petra too and so wanted one or the other to win the title.

As far as I'm concerned, Petra is the player to beat on this (relatively) fast hard court, and I'm curious to see whether Elina will be able to bring something new to the table to make the match-up more competitive this time. Konta is no Kvitova, but I was impressed with the way Elina turned the tables on her in the second set after being dominated in the first.

She had her chances

Re: Elina Svitolina Cheering Thread!

Honestly so shocked that Eli decided to split with Iain. I've sat near him for so many of her matches and had conversations with him, and i'm always baffled by the amazing things he can say to her on court. It'll be real interesting to see who she brings in, cause it probably won't be Justine full time (she's preggo)
I'll miss Iain
But Eli is a smart girl. I have faith in her!
